This policy is in place for a number of reasons. Sites been around a long time to help maintain some control they have had to resort to this. As well as some other reasons. So it won't be changing any time soon.

Many times I do and there are still mistakes I miss. For example: This morning I proof read a post while I was writing it. I thought, that should solve the problem. But it didn't. I still noticed mistakes that I had to correct. This is because it is easier to read the text in it's final result.

Also, if you are concerned about how you charge for editing while other sites do not, you can provide a history or explanation as to why you do charge for it. You know, to keep the place add free and yet also prevent sinister folks trying to slander others. But do not take my word for it, such a deciision should not be made unless everyone here who runs this site should pray over it first (of course).

Just finding this thread and new to the board. This is one of the few places that won't let one edit their posts. I'm all for accuracy and if I post something I need to correct please let me correct it anytime the error is found.

There has always been a 5 minute window for editing as long as I have been a member. Otherwise, someone could drastically edit a post to have it take on a new meaning than it originally had, and this after other members have responded to the post as it was first submitted. This would be also tend to be very disruptive to the natural ebb and flow of the conversation.
